Not under CP operation, because the Park car always operated out of
Montreal. Beginning in the early 1970s, the Toronto car was only scheduled
to run during the summer when the train was longer. If there was extra
demand, they could schedule an extra full sleeper on whichever route it was
needed. There were lots of these available.

I never was in Subury when there were two Park cars arriving. I do
know the Toronto section operated frequently without a Park car so is
it possible that the car's destination was decided on where the
sleeping accommodation was sold to for a period of time?

arrive / leave with "Park" cars? 2) and if yes, where did they turn

the extra Park car?
Any insight would be helpful.
